This is my design card for Love to craft challenge 5: anything goes. Please click the link to see the lovely crafting by the rest of the team and we hope you will join in the challenge.

The card was for my brother and sister-in-law's golden wedding anniversary in October. I used Teresa Collins papers, foiling using a todo plate, a Martha Stewart punch, flowers from Hobbycraft and various other bits and pieces, as you can see.

These are my design cards for A bit more time to craft challenge 33: anything goes. Please click on the link to see the lovely designs of the rest of the team and we hope you will join in our challenge.

I used Lozzy's Anika and Birthday dream papers for both cards, using different colours - I only intended to make one card, but ended up making both. I added die cut and embossed butterflies on the first card and some beautiful flowers I got quite a while ago from Lozzy, adding the hearts and bows.

On the second card I used a large acetate butterfly that has been in a box with other bits and pieces for longer than I can remember. Once again I used some beautiful flowers from Lozzy and hearts from stash.

For my card I used Bugaboo Stamps Autumn critter stack, kindly supplied by them as sponsor of the challenge. I used offcuts from my Christmas papers for the background adding some gold glittered tape and backing the pre-coloured image with another offcut piece. Words generated on computer and printed.

Both of my cards were made using papers from the Elegant Christmas pad from Poundland (there is one of these to be won on the challenge) and using Elisabeth Bell designs purchased from Hobby House. Scraps of matt pearlescent gold card were used to punch stars and some gems added. These were quick cards as I still have a lot of Christmas cards to make (despite making them all through the year ... sell lots to raise money for charity and end up not having enough for us to send).
